Remedies for mononucleosis

Remedies for mononucleosis: Professor Akim Bouterra's advice, supplemented by what research says (propolis, royal jelly, and other bee products), the precautions to know, and our resources to go further.

In order to fight mononucleosis, caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, we recommend antivirals such as propolis or royal jelly with honey in the morning.

In addition, reishi mushroom works very well against this virus; it is recommended to take a six-month course, taking three capsules a day, one before each meal.

At the same time, depending on the symptoms, mouthwashes and propolis oral sprays are recommended for symptoms affecting the mouth, and tea tree cream for anything affecting the skin.

Furthermore, thyme, oregano, or wormwood herbal teas are good allies in fighting this virus.

Finally, it will be essential to consume vitamin E and C, particularly through juices.

What the science says: propolis, royal jelly and hive products

What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context — the studies address material causes; healing belongs to Allah.

Propolis, royal jelly and hive products

Propolis, a resin gathered by bees, shows healing effects confirmed by a meta-analysis on skin wounds (Arch Dermatol Res, 2023) and shows promise for oral health (J Funct Biomater, 2024). Like honey, these products are part of the apitherapy the professor recommends to support immunity. Precaution: possible allergy to hive products (especially propolis and bee pollen) — start with small amounts; bee venom should only be used with a trained professional.
